EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of the 1914 Swiss National Exhibition, showcasing a vibrant and bustling flower stall. The exhibition, which opened in Bern on May 15th and ran until October 15th, coincided with the outbreak of World War I, adding an air of poignancy to this snapshot of Swiss culture.
The postcard is part of a triptych created by Burkhard Mangold, a pioneering figure in Swiss poster art. Mangold's work beautifully illustrates the diversity and richness of Swiss produce, capturing the attention of visitors to the exhibition.
As we gaze upon this image from over a century ago, we are transported back in time to a moment when Switzerland was celebrating its heritage and creativity amidst global turmoil. The colors pop off the page, drawing us into a world where flowers bloom brightly despite the shadows cast by war.
This print is not just a historical artifact; it is a testament to resilience and beauty in times of uncertainty. It reminds us that even in moments of darkness, there is always light to be found in art and nature.
